Let’s say that I feel a little pain after doing some exercise I don’t normally do.
Is it okay to, say, walk normally instead of limping a bit with a minor pain in a leg, or does it make the muscle’s condition worse?

    some light exercise speeds up the recovery (if you didn’t damage it too bad). limping could cause problems in supporting muscles. if the pain is unbearable, maybe avoid walking too much.

      Exactly this. Active recovery (moving the muscles around like normal with a bit of exercise) is the best. Limping will likely cause other problems down the line.

      So normal walking would be better than limping.

      No unbearable pain existing.

          Small pain after workout 🙂 Which could go away by itself via resting.
